So tempted to put some money on the dees
what do you guys reckon?
Thatās fair providing you understand that wanting doesnāt always lead to getting.
Gawn has been dominating plenty of opposition rucks this year and Dees still havenāt been winning.
Hoping Leuey can actually get himself involved around ground. Huge task for Gawn to basically ruck 90% of game and back up and do that again 4 days later.
Yep, good idea.
Iād drop a grand on the Dees, if I were you.

Yea i think they will win too
Just put $400 on them at the line
pretty low on cash at the moment so hopefully essington show up today
Playing and watching are very different, have no doubt the players hate losing too. but i can handle it more when the style of play is exciting to watch or I can see growth and development. Watching young raw players turn into stars is a joy. I was responding to what seemed to be a dig at people complaining about spending money and expecting results. Iām not often one of those people but feel their point of view is reasonable.
Entertainment might have been the wrong word but after the ceremony stuff I didnāt enjoy anything about the game on Wednesday and for some people for whom it requires a fair bit of effort to get to game I feel that instead of just going next time because Iām a forever bombers man, Iāll be looking for a decent form line going into the next game I choose to go to.
Fair weather? Maybe.

Whatās the line at?
Or watching it on the tele so if the game starts getting to you, you can turn it off or watch something else. And; the big plus, you donāt have to drive home.

Fair point. Canāt enjoy the highs without the lows. I just feel for young members ,us oldies know how good those highs are and every Essendon Supporter derserves that feeling I reckon. Itās the best.
I donāt believe any part of your story, or your online persona.

Iām gutted when we lose badly. Maybe Iām a little weird, but it only takes me around 2 hours to get over it and back to life.

Fair enough.
I think most threaten to ditch their membership but I think itās just people venting.
I donāt like how corporate the club has become though and the total lack of passion coming from the club is disappointing.
Need more people like Goddard speaking their minds not the media trained jargon that comes out. Iām like you I donāt expect premierships but I do expect a club that competes every week.

so this just happened
A blessing in disguise
just like franklin being out for sydney srs
Like the Port Adelaide game. I had no idea what to expect.
Roof closed. Felt like a flat dreary afternoon coming up. Then bang, the team are switched on and play well.
Feels the same today. Essendon are a lucky dip bag - no idea what you are going to pull out.

At least heād present a target instead of standing 80m from the ball carrier with his hand in the air
Would not surprise me if Joe is missing. A bit of a win-win for Woosha. Gives him one of many excuses when we lose, gives Joe a rest and some thinking time, gives the side to set-up without Joe OR if he is indeed carrying a niggle, gives him a 10 day rest.
Melbourne to win by 4 goals in a skill-free game, after being an arm wrestle until half time.
